Since the day I met Eva Lima
she became one of my style inspirations,
we met recently at an opening and her presence was so strong that immediately made
me curious about who she is. Googling someone is not enough, especially if that
individual is somewhat related with the luxury
industry, they always try to keep a low profile within the Media.

However, low profile wouldn’t be
the word that I would personally use to describe Eva Lima, she is a remarkable person and wherever she goes Eva can make
any jaw drop! All of this, is not coincidence, she is the face behind one of the most luxurious and successful businesses
in Lisbon, MAISON. At MAISON every employee wore white gloves and served champagne,
coffee with petit fours or tea
to their customers. Eva is not only the creative director, but also a highly requested stylist in this store
that is passing through some transformations recently.

Fortunately, our paths have
crossed regularly, for instance last Friday at the Ritz Christmas Ball, in Lisbon, where I had the opportunity to
photograph her stunning outfit. She was wearing a blue monarchic velvet dress with organza sleeves, a studio
MAISON design.

This was the third edition of
the Ritz Christmas Ball, which happened at “Salão Nobre” and counted with the popular Portuguese host Gilda Nunes de Abreu. Ritz
Christmas decorations were splendid and I bet that Eva and her husband Paulo Pamplona had a blast at the
dinner and gala!
